Voice Control on MagicMirror Synology Docker
-
I run mine in Docker on my Synology. Use a pi behind the mirror for viewing with PIR hooked up to it.
As for voice, yeah you might be outta luck there.

so you use a python script to handle PIR screen on/off, not a MagicMirror module, right?

esign assumes the hardware is near
To solve the PIR problem I could wire the sensor to the GPIO of the Raspberry connected to the monitor (away from the Raspberry Server on the Synology) and turn the monitor off / on using a few lines of code (something I should find on the internet … do you have any advice ?) that run externally to the MM.
For voice commands I would like to use GoogleHome/EchoDot Alexa (better quality of voice recognition, integrated speaker, google/alexa functions, etc …) to send commands to the MM Server.
This last part is still being studied … I see that someone on the forum has tried the GH-MM combination but I don’t see many results … -
@egnos alexa, use MMM-AlexaControl, but it sends to the server side.
so you could run FULL MM on synology and view on pi same as before.
PIR … quick search turns up lots of python based solutions

I know it! Someone on the forum has done something … but there is no feedback !

@sdetweil yes that’s right
